moving city, ark

Among the burning wooden boards in the ruins, frost-white frost can be seen everywhere, which looks very strange.

However, she did not see the source of all this.

"Where are the shield guards and the snow monsters?!"

She held back a man who was running past.

"You—! Are you Tallulah?!"

There was a look of shock on the man's face, but it was replaced by anger and disgust in the next moment.

"Run away, run away! They all ran away! They were still blocking those two monsters, but they were knocked down within two hits, and then they all ran away! What guerrillas—"

Before he finished speaking, the man's face suddenly showed an expression of extreme fear as if he saw something, "They, they are coming! Don't pull me!!"

The man slammed Tallulah's arm away, staggered and almost fell to the ground, but he didn't stop moving forward, and ran quickly to the distance.

...the shield guards and the yeti retreated.

The answer flashed across Tallulah's mind for a moment.

...Is it because of an order from Luo Yi...

She didn't have time to think about it, she followed the line of sight of the fleeing man, and what caught her eyes were two dark and tall figures - the two emperor's inner guards.

The crowd around them were still running away. If these two inner guards were allowed to advance, it would undoubtedly be a tragedy.

...Alina...

Worried thoughts flashed through her mind.

However, in this situation, she finally chose to pull out the long sword at her waist, and ran in the opposite direction from the panicked crowd, shouting.

"Don't panic! Evacuate to the gate of the camp! As long as you get there, you will be safe!"

The effect is minimal, but she has no extra energy to think about other things.

Losing all barriers, the two emperor's inner guards who were approaching her forced her to concentrate all her attention.

The sense of threat that tingles the nerves is like strangling the throat, making the throat dry out.

Even the Patriots can only face three inner defenders, and she is far behind the Patriots.These two monsters in front of her, as long as she has any omissions, they have enough ability to kill her.

"Stop! The emperor's internal guards of the empire, do they exist to slaughter ordinary people?!"

The raging fire dragon ran through the not-so-spacious road between the camps, and rushed straight at the two inner guards.

"The successors of Black Snake... from the moment they become infected, whether they should be regarded as 'ordinary people' is already a matter worth discussing, let alone..."

The fire dragon enveloping the two inner guards seemed to hit a solid rock, splashing sparks all over the sky, and then began to disappear.

...He actually resisted directly? !

When Tallulah showed a slightly startled expression, her pupils suddenly constricted.

only one person? !

What about another one? ! !

She suddenly thought of something, and suddenly turned her head to look at the fleeing crowd.

This time, she finally saw Alina's figure in the chaotic crowd.

Although Alina looked a little embarrassed, there shouldn't be any problem.At this time, she was handing a child to another man beside her.

She recognized that it was also a teacher of the children.

It was too late to be happy to see her friend safe and sound, and she opened her mouth to send a reminder to the crowd who didn't know anything.

However, at this time, she had already seen that dark and tall voice appearing behind the crowd, raised the short knife in her hand, and swung it at a man who was running wildly at the end of the crowd.

"—"

a lot of people know one thing

When being chased by a tiger, you don't necessarily have to be faster than the tiger, just be faster than another person next to you to be saved...or, at least, to get some respite.

Therefore, in the face of a life-and-death struggle, the man desperately pulled the unaware girl, whose back was turned to him, behind him, and then continued to run towards the road ahead without hesitation.

Two figures staggered past, one was facing Sheng, while the other fell backward in a daze, facing the attacking sharp blade.

Her eyes widened, and her voice rushed to her throat, but she couldn't make it out.

Flames shot up from around Drake unconsciously, and then shot towards the emperor's inner guard holding a dagger and standing behind the blood-soaked girl like an arrow.

"This temperature... avoid it!!"

The inner guard standing near Tallulah issued a reminder, but before he could finish speaking, arrows formed by incandescent sparks had already touched several parts of the inner guard not far away.

Even though he had reacted, he still hadn't completely dodged.

The place touched by sparks is like flammable and flimsy paper, which turns black and curls in the next moment, and then turns into ashes and drifts away, leaving only holes.

"Leave her—!!"

The fireball wrapped around Tallulah rushed towards the messy inner guard, leaving a dark road mixed with snow and water on the ground along the way.

"Sister Alina—"

The child's cries sounded, but he could only be hugged and hurried away by the teacher who was pulling him away.

In that place, only Drake, who was emitting flames, and the girl lying on the ground were safe and sound in the flames.Everything around was melted and burned.

The teacher holding the child looked at the battlefield helplessly, and finally turned around and ran towards the direction where the crowd left, leaving this place to the only four people left.

Both inner guards died, but she didn't feel any joy, and she didn't even have time to think about it.

"...Alina, don't fall asleep! I'll take you to the doctor. Mr. Luo Yi, Mr. Luo Yi, they should not have left, and the transport plane has not taken off yet."

Tallulah panickedly picked up the girl whose whole body was almost dyed crimson.

Tallulah, who has experienced a fierce battle, can hardly see any traces of battle on her body.However, she was obviously only carrying an extraordinarily light deer, but when she took the first step, she staggered.

In the end, she still couldn't maintain her balance and fell into the muddy water.

The exquisite noble uniform was immediately covered with bright red and muddy stains.

"...You can't even walk by yourself, so you don't need to waste this effort... It's better to hurry up and meet Mr. Luo Yi and the others..."

Alina, who fell to the side, looked at Tallulah who was in a mess beside her, a faint smile appeared on the corner of her lips, and a weak voice came out between her dry and white lips.

"Even if I don't understand the common medical knowledge you mentioned, I also know what's on the left side of the chest."

"I……"

She realized that she was crying.It was the first time she was conscious.

"If only I had found out sooner..."

Water drops fell on the back of her hand.

She didn't want to blame the man who pushed Alina to the knife, they...

...they just don't have a choice...

……

But is that really the case...

The touch of the water droplets falling on the back of the hand is exceptionally clear, with a slight impact, warm and then cold.

She really doesn't want to blame him, really doesn't want to blame him, don't blame them, don't...

"Don't hate anyone."

As if knowing what she was thinking, Alina who was lying in front of her suddenly said so.

However, Alina, who said so, suddenly showed a wry smile on her face.

"But it seems that I still lost."

"Alina, what are you talking about...?"

Facing the girl in front of her who was almost drenched in blood, she was at a loss, not knowing what to do.

The blood was no longer flowing, but at this time, it was not good news.

She seemed to be able to feel something sprouting in her heart, something breaking out of the cocoon.

Those who once said that even if she had a problem, they could bring her back, now they will leave her one by one.

"...It's nothing, I just hope that you won't blame me in the future."

"How could it be, how could I..."

Her words suddenly stopped in her throat, and the girl lying in front of her quietly closed her eyes.

'You will see that this land into which you have put everything does not want you.

You'll see them spurn everything you hold dear, life, dignity and ideas meaningless. '

The words that the black snake had said suddenly resounded in her heart.

...No, no, it's not like that...

However, such a simple negation could not come out of her throat at all.

At this moment, something huge rose up from the direction of the gate of the camp.

She turned her head as if aware of it, and in front of the gradually rising Hercules, it was Luo Yi who landed in front of her and opened his mask.

"Got you."

……what?

Those words seemed to be addressed to her, but Luo Yi clearly looked at her, but seemed to be looking at something else.

However, before she could continue her thinking and ask the person standing in front of her her own question, her mind suddenly went blank.

The first time he saw those light gray eyes, he found his purpose this time.

——A seed that is taking root and sprouting out of the ground.

"Koseche, can you finally stop showing yourself?"

Luo Yi's laughter echoed in the empty space.

This is Tallulah's spiritual space.

The princess said that he is capable enough to use the ring she gave him, and now it seems that there is nothing wrong with her words.

As for the reason, he can probably guess some of it.

"Luo Yi...you actually managed to find this place."

Gentle and refined, but in this spiritual space, there was a lingering cold voice, and then rang out, "It seems that you can make Kazdel's prince return home, you really have some unsatisfactory qualities. Known for its excellence.”

He could hear the vigilance in Kosche's voice, but,

"I don't have time to waste with you."

Although Tallulah is at the lowest point in all aspects, he has no way to shield her consciousness for too long.

He followed the method that the princess told him to inject the power in his mind into this spiritual space through the ring on his little finger, and then threw it down towards the sprouts that had just broken out of the ground.

"……What it is?"

"I do not know either."

The power transformed through the ring, in the spiritual space, looks like a mass of dark, shapeless unknown objects.

How did he know what it was... Even if it was the power flowing from his mind.

However, when this group of unknown objects landed on the branches on the ground, Kosche's mournful howling sounded as if he had suffered some kind of torture.

"What's this--?!!"

"Uh, I said, I don't know..."

Kosche's reaction made him a little startled.

The new shoots that had just protruded from the ground seemed to be rotten from the inside. The branches quickly withered, then rotted, and finally dissipated in this space.

Even Kosche's miserable howling gradually disappeared after a few seconds.

"...That's it, done?"
